MyFeetOwnMySoul @lemmy.ca Aren't bears 2/2s? Wouldn't 8 beats be a 16/16

That's not even limited to bears, the power scaling for MtG cards in general is logarithmic. The most famous example being the fact that Emrakul, the plane-eating eldrich god and most powerful card ever printed, can be defeated by 15 1/1 squirrels.

Hey, if you can get 15 squirrels to work together, killing god is the least you have to worry about them doing.

AEsheron @lemmy.world Grizzly Bears is a 2/2 that depicts 2 bears. Implying each bear is 1/1 on its own.

SeeingWhereThisGoes @sh.itjust.works Summoning an 8/8 creature for a 2 cost is really good too

6 0 ReplyThassodar @lemm.ee That 8/8 better be conditional.
Like "you have to take a hit from a real bear" conditional. Otherwise it's a 3/3 with defender.

I think this card could work with something like "Whenever Eight Fucking Bears is dealt damage, place that many -1/-1 counters on it." Maybe make it cost 2F instead of 1F.

Ah crap, you're right. It's been a while since I notated Magic cards my brain went to Forest instead of Green.
